Determinants and Stratification of Microvascular Complications of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a prevalent metabolic disorder characterized by high blood sugar levels. It is classified into type 1 (T1DM) and type 2 (T2DM), which have different mechanisms and complications. The global prevalence of diabetes, particularly T2DM, has increased significantly in recent decades, leading to a need for standardized data collection of macrovascular and microvascular complications to track disease progression and guide treatment options.
